An application of Zadeh’s prototype theory in the Knowledge Acquisition process, is presented here, and as a practical example, to define a method for predicting the evolution of the forest fire occurrence-danger rate in INCEND-IA: A KBS for prediction and…

En este trabajo se propone una metodología para mejorar las predicciones de incendios forestales. Utilizando un simulador ya desarrollado, se utiliza un algoritmo genético para realizar una búsqueda efectiva de parámetros de entrada tal que estos parámetros logren una buena…

Se evaluó el modo de utilización de la antibioticoprofilaxis quirúrgica por medio de la revisión de la historia clínica y el cuestionario a los residentes de áreas quirúrgicas. La indicación y el esquema profiláctico de 1185 historias clínicas fueron evaluadas…

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability of the implementation of this architecture according to the advance of the…

The paper presents a formal model for a knowledge repository shared by members of a Virtual Community of Practice (VCPs), describes how the repository can be used to underpin collaborative problem solving, and how to build computer support for such…

This study investigates an approach of knowledge discovery and data mining in insufficient databases. An application of Computational Taxonomy analysis demonstrates that the approach is effective in such a data mining process. The approach is characterized by the use of…
